Mental illness and stigma: Coping with the ridicule
Archaic stereotypes and discrimination are painful reminders that mental illnesses are still stigmatized. When mental illnesses are used as labels-depressed, schizophrenic, manic, or hyperactive-these labels hurt. Labels lead to stigma -- a word that means branding and shame. And stigma leads to discrimination. Everyone knows why it is wrong to discriminate against people because of their race, religion, culture, or appearance. They are less aware of how people with mental illnesses are discriminated against. Although such discrimination may not always be obvious, it exists-and it hurts. This Forum will continuously dig into the facts of Mental Illness and the stigma that surrounds it. |

Therapy
What is psychotherapy? Psychotherapy — often referred to as talk therapy — addresses troubling symptoms and emotions using psychological techniques rather than, or along with, medication or other physical approaches. There are many theories and styles of psychotherapy, but the two most popular forms are psychodynamic therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. Forum Led by: Admin Team-Moderator, Sheepwoman |
